hold on to the memories

despite the reputation that folklore enjoyers get, i think taylor’s songwriting is at its best when it is simplistic and direct & she is the best in the business at capturing a feeling in a short phrase. that song writing is also ALL OVER folklore. “but we were something don’t you think so?” is my favorite example of such a simple line that is SO full of emotion. i feel the same way about “i’m still a believer, but i don’t know why.” this kind of songwriting is what she built her career on and i will always go to bat that lyrics like “i’m 13 now and don’t know how my friends can be so mean” or “i just like hanging out with you” or “I just don’t understand how you don’t miss me” or “i was there, i remember it” or “you’re dancing around your room when the night ends” or “don’t make her drop you off around the block, remember that she’s getting older too” are always going to be infinitely better to me than the word salad she comes up with sometimes and calls it “quill pen” writing

the friendship bracelet to engagement ring pipeline goes absolutely crazy

I hope taylor truly has the most private wedding that could ever happen ever and only chooses what she shares to

if anything taylor always shows that life truly has much better things coming your way. always. when you've been wronged one way or the other... and you choose yourself and you have your own back.... it does work out.

getting her music back releasing an infectiously joyful album and getting engaged in one year i couldn’t be happier for her

she's talking about this album sooo similarly to the way she was talking about 1989 – polished, laser-focused, thematic, upbeat, sparkling, complete. it only makes sense to return to max and shellback and to go all out with the accompanying artwork. another pop masterpiece is upon us

the fact that she wrote 2 ALBUMS during the most physically demanding tour of her career is insane work

god there really is NOTHING as fun as the feeling of a taylor swift album rollout. the questions, the hints, the clues, the theories, the edits, the community, the anticipation!!

a focused, thematic 12-track album detailing a "behind-the-curtain" look into taylor's life during the eras tour, made just with taylor, max, and shellback, featuring photography by the visionaries behind the reputation album visuals, infectious melodies, and vivid, sharp lyrics..........we have literally never been THIS fucking back

the way she is so confident in TLOAS. the way she is talking about her focus and intentionality with single song. idk how but her description of what the process was like has somehow made me even more excited!
